Title: Crimson

By: Morgan Johnson

Disclaimer: I do Not Own Yugioh

Since it seems that I'm losing viewers, I've decided to end the

story. This is its final chapter. I know that you'll hate me for this

but school is starting soon and I thought of a way to make this

story end well. I hate myself for this right now but it will all work

out in the end. I am planning on making a sequel though so look

for it soon. There's a quick preview at the end of this story. Quick

thing: I started out the next chapter for Lullaby but I have begun

to gotten killer headaches from being on the computer for a long

period of time, so I haven't really finished it. But I will soon.

Thanks to my last remaining reviewers: I will miss reading your

comments:

Fox-San: Yep, well you'll see and it's Marik (as if it were the

Yami a.k.a. the evil one)

Silver Moon Phoenix: It will be lighter on angst but not on blood

and guts, sorry.

Nightfall 2525: He's really pissed so yeah. No.

CheeryBlossomLove: Thanks

Judgment-of-anubis: Yeah but you'll see why she was like that.

Magical Bakura: Thanks

Kupo: Happy you're not.

Here we go, the conlcusion to Crimson:

Chapter 19: A beginning to and ending

The poor youth screamed as he was savagely torn apart by the

crazed vampire. Said screams only encouraged the vampire to

continue his assault. His true colors began to show as the soft

exterior he had developed disappeared as though it had never been

there. He pulled away momentarily to stare at his masterpiece.

The youth was soaked in a pool of blood and was no longer able to

breathe thanks to the slashes across his chest. His pants were

shallow and weak, ultimately ending in his faint of life. The

vampire laughed maniacally as though it were something to be

proud of. He kneeled in the pool of blood and savored the blood

that was slowly beginning to run cold. He didn't care as of now.

The only thing in his insane mind was hunger and the desire for

destruction. Who would of thought that just recently he had been

kind and actually compassionate? No it wasn't possible at least it

wasn't supposed to. At that very moment he would've been holding

his beloved safely in his arms. But she was with another. Jealousy

plagued his mind as he sensed her in the arms of another but that

wouldn't be so for long. "She's mine" he hollowed at the night sky

as he prepared to return home and claim what was rightfully his,

no matter how he had to do it.

Marik led Anzu to her room slowly. He felt a horrible pain in his

heart and a desire for murder but somewhere in there he felt that

something was off. Why would Anzu's parents not care that her

daughter was missing? How could a girl like her have parents like

that? But all thoughts swept out of his mind as he sensed a very

angry Bakura approaching their house. Something told him that

it wouldn't be good. He began to quicken his pace still holding

Anzu who looked as though she were about to pass out at any

moment. He gently opened her door and led her to bed. He kissed

her forehead and closed the door behind him only to be pushed

against the wall forcefully by Bakura. "You're history"

Images kept flashing through Anzu's mind as a thick black fog

surrounded her. She saw her parents holding her and tucking her

in goodnight. Her birthday parties went by and she saw all of her

smiling friends. Going out to the mall with her ex's, working at the

café and attending to customers. But all began to blur as images of

her loved ones became bloodied. Yami, Seto, Mokuba, Joey,

Serenity were all dead around her. "Your to blame for this" they

hissed as they surrounded her as though ready to strike at any

moment. She couldn't keep herself from shaking and tears kept

pouring from her eyes as each second passed. "It's because of you

that we're stuck like this in this torment. You deserved to die not

us," they kept chanting over and over again. Anzu couldn't take it

anymore and she tried to run away. She got as far as she could

before everything went dark and the one she feared most showed

up, Tea. "So afraid are we?" she sneered. "I don't know why, you

have everything you could ever want. Power, the love of two men

who would do anything for you. That's why they're killing

themselves right now" she hissed pointing towards a door that

appeared not too far. But as Anzu tried to get to it, it was pushed

away. "Ah, ah, ah. Not so fast little Anzu. You and me have some

things to discuss"

"Get off of me" screeched Marik as Bakura continued his assault.

"She's mine and I won't let you have her" "I don't want her, I

want Tea," he said breaking into tears. "What?" "I want to join

Tea, okay?" Bakura was utterly shocked. Marik didn't want Anzu

but her past self and the only way he could get to her was if he

died too. 'That can be arranged', he thought as he prepared to give

the final blow.

"What?"

"Bakura's about to kill Marik all because of you"

"No, he wouldn't. He knows that I don't love Marik but him"

"Stop lying" said Tea with anger seeping through her spirit form.

"I'm not lying, Bakura's the one I love, just like you love Marik."

"How…?"

"I'm you, remember? I can feel what you held for him in the past.

All the times you spent with him, how happy me made you. You

fell for him but kept it quiet feeling guilty that you stopped loving

Bakura"

"…"

"Admit it already, I know it's true and they should know as well"

Tea nodded as the room's fog lifted and the appeared next to the

two vampires.

"Stop this at once" said Tea as her spirit floated towards them. To

say that they were shocked would be an understatement.

"What's going on here?" asked Bakura as he felt his anger lift.

"I'm sorry this is all my fault. I hurt you Bakura" Tea said as she

began to cry.

"…" Both Marik and Bakura were speechless but Marik had

begun to question his already fleeting sanity. There in front of him

was the person that he truly loved. He had felt drawn towards

Anzu because she was Tea future self but now it had all changed.

"I used Anzu's body to get closer to Marik. She didn't know what

was going on because I kept part of myself hidden from her. I

wanted to be close to the one I love" she whispered the last part

and felt fear as she looked into Bakura's eyes. He was so hurt and

angry that she didn't what he would do.

"You love him," hissed Bakura as he directed his glare on Anzu

who stood speechless.

"No, I love him, she loves you," said Tea correcting Bakura's

assumption before things got out of hand." I'm sorry for lying to

you in the past. After I began to spend time with Marik I fell in

love with him. But I couldn't hurt after all we had been through.

So I stayed by your side and it only ended up in all of us getting

hurt. I'm so sorry, I never wanted to hurt you" she began to cry

and Marik ran to her side but he just passed right through her.

That only made her cry even harder. Bakura was so confused that

he didn't know what to do. Here he stood with the women who he

had thought to be one person alone. One loved his friend while the

other loved him. But how could he be sure that she loved him. Tea

had just confessed that she didn't love him and what if Anzu felt

the same. 'I don't' he heard her say through their mind-link. 'I

love you'. Anzu let all of her emotions flow through her so that

Bakura would feel it too. Bakura smiled, as he now knew what he

had to do. He had Anzu, Marik at least deserved to be with Tea.

He buried all of his anger in the past. He had a future to look

forward to. After he did what was needed to be done he would take

Anzu away from here and they would start fresh somewhere where

they could be happy and memories of the painful past would not

come back to haunt them.

"Kill me"

"…"

"Please I want to be with Tea"

Bakura looked sadly at his friend and nodded. If Marik loved Tea

enough to go into the afterlife to be with her then so be it.

"You know I'll be looking out for you," said Marik chuckling as if

he had said a joke that was supposed to make everyone laugh. It

only did the contrary. Anzu began to cry and Bakura smiled sadly

at his once accomplice made best friend. Anzu ran to him and gave

him a hug goodbye and Bakura had to ply her from him. He

raised his hand up high holding a stake he had made from the

coffee table that now lye smashed upon the floor. Marik took in his last breath as Bakura plunged the stake deep within his chest He

smiled sadly as he looked at Tea who removed herself from Anzu's

soul. Anzu let out a choked cry, as she felt torn in two. Tea was

now separated from her completely and had left to join Marik as

his body had turned to ashes.

"Anzu" came a soft vice. She looked up from the floor, which she

had fallen upon. "It's okay Anzu, we're together now" Anzu

smiled sadly as she saw Tea hand in hand with Marik. She felt a

pair of arms curl themselves around her and knew that Bakura

was here to stay with her. They both watched with tears in their

eyes as Tea and Marik disappeared into nothingness…

Morgan: So like it? Tell me but remember no flames especially in

this chapter. I know I hate myself too. But I had to end it seeing

as I was running out of ideas and no one was reviewing anymore.

I will however do a sequel with Tea and Marik as the main

characters. However Marik's name will be changed to Malik,

you'll see why when I do the first chapter. Depending if you want

it or not. I hope you like it. I thought that since Anzu had

Bakura thatMarik should have someone that he loved. And so I

thought of bringing back Tea. In case it was unclear, Tea had been

manipulating Anzu to be closer to Marik and ever since she was

changed it had been Tea in control of the body without Anzu

knowing any different. I know it's a big stretch but it was all I

could think of. I hope you like the sequel and um just in case

you're wondering, Anzu and Bakura will not appear in it since

their chapter is over. Here's a preview that I hope will lighten up

the mood.

Title: "Soul-Mates"

By: Morgan Johnson

Quick summary-

A roar erupted from heaven as two souls were torn apart. "Marik,

don't leave me" screamed Tea as she watched her beloved being

shredded to pieces by the angels that were supposed to protect

them. "Tea" choked out Marik as he disappeared completely. Tea

was the next to go as she felt her body become numb.

"It would've been easier for him if he hadn't resisted" said a loud

and serious voice.

"Come on Duke you shouldn't have separated them so quickly"

"Do not question me Tristan. The only reason they even made it to

heaven was because of their original pure souls but they were no

longer pure but tainted by darkness."

The angel sighed as he watched the earth with hope. 'They'll just

have to find each other again. I hope they meet up before the past

repeats itself for the girl" was his last thought as the view of earth

began to get blurry from the clouds that covered heaven's

paradise…
